We originally got the car for my wife. We looked together and decided on it together, but the car was for her and she chose it. She drove it as her main car, and I drove it sometimes like on vacations, short trips and weekends until 2017. In 2017 we got another new 2017 Tucson. My wife loves the car and wanted another newer one so now I drive the '05 most the time now. My wife has a strong emotional attachment to the car, she even named it Honey Day. We have had few problems with it and it has been a great car.

I got my car about two years ago. It was my first car, and since I was moving out, I needed a car right away. I bought it cash from an Auto Nation, and even though it has cosmetic hail damage, it was strong and exactly what I needed. It runs very smoothly, it is great on gas, and I like the look of it. It has nice little features like the light up mirror, sunglasses case, multiple places to charge your phone and the rear window opens up separate from the main trunk. It has front-wheel drive, though I would prefer four-wheel or all-wheel drive given the climate I live in. It is a dark blue color, so I nicknamed it “Beast” after a superhero. I feel really connected to this car since it is my first car, and I depend on it for everything. It has given me a sense of freedom and adulthood. I do not know much about cars, but I read the owner’s manual back to front because I wanted to make sure I knew everything I could.
